Chapter 9: The Empress Dowager of the Red Chamber (9)

Early in the morning, at midnight

To be precise, before the sun rose and the sky was still a little dark, a large group of people haunted the eastern district of the capital, surrounding the Zhen family and the Zhong'an palace in the eastern district of the capital.

They didn't have to go through the doorman's permission, they just broke through the door and broke in.

When you see someone, you will be arrested, but if you want to resist, you will kill all of them, and the same is true for those who want to escape and report the news, and you will never let anyone go, even a fly will leave.

"Daring, who let you break into this official's mansion? Don't get out of here! ”

At this time, Zhen Yingjia had just gotten up and was about to wear an official uniform to go to court, when the door of the bedroom was forcibly pushed open, and a team of royal forest soldiers poured in.

Although Zhen Yingjia was very panicked, she still scolded loudly with a calm expression, and dragged her shoes to force her way out.

However, the main thing to arrest is him, how could Wei Xiang let him leave?

"Lord Zhen!

How many corrupt things have you done, I think I should know very well, where do you want to go, this official brought the emperor's holy decree and the empress dowager's decree over, and he still knelt down to accept the decree? ”

Wei Xiang laughed, then motioned to the people on the side to push Zhen Yingjia to the ground, and ordered.

Zhen Yingjia is not stupid, just now his resistance can be called the innocence of those who do not know, but now Wei Xiangdu has made it clear that the holy decree is coming, if he still dares to resist, then he has to add the crime of disrespecting the decree and violating the holy decree, so he can only kneel down and accept the decree in fear.

The content of the holy decree is very simple, it is nothing more than counting the sins committed by the Zhen family, announcing the raid of the house, and taking them into custody by the Criminal Department.

Waiting for the verdict.

And Yi Zhi did not read it, because Yi Zhi changed it two days ago, from the beginning of reprimanding the Zhen family to reminding the head of the Criminal Department, and even the target has been changed, Wei Xiang naturally will not read the Empress Dowager's decree to Zhen Yingjia again.

As for what the content has changed?

Just one meaning, that is, to remind the criminal department of Shangshu what to do with my mother's family at the beginning, and what to do with the Zhen family, and not to bend the law for personal gain.

Originally, the Zhen family committed an accident, and it had nothing to do with the Empress Dowager, and it had nothing to do with it at all, and the Empress Dowager had no reason to make an edict, and even if the Empress Dowager made an edict, it would make people feel that there was a suspicion of harem interference, but with the case of the Zhao family in front of him, everyone thought that the Empress Dowager was in a very bad mood, and this edict may even be considered by some people to be the Empress Dowager's decree to force the emperor to pardon the Zhao family's crimes.

It's the kind of person who severely punishes my mother's family, so you can't tolerate any other officials.

Of course, it is only a small number of people who don't know about the situation in each middle school, and those ministers who know about the situation in each middle school will instantly understand that this is the emperor uniting the queen mother to deal with the emperor! Even the Empress Dowager did not hesitate to sacrifice her mother's family.

The Empress Dowager has issued an edict and asked the Criminal Department to punish severely, so it will be difficult for the Emperor to intervene in it, because if the Emperor intervenes again, it will inevitably make people feel unfilial.

Disobey the mother's will!

Of course, if the Empress Dowager's decree is unreasonable, or even a mistake in itself, then it doesn't matter if the Empress Dowager stops it, everyone will naturally help find a reason, but now the Empress Dowager's edict is obviously not wrong.

Is it wrong to demand severe punishment for corrupt officials?

That's right, there's nothing wrong with it no matter where you put it.

The palace on the other side is the same, and it is the same as being raided after the holy decree is read.

At the same time, the other team of people who were sent to the Jinling Zhen family also successfully won all the incriminating evidence of the Jinling Zhen family, and escorted all the personnel of the Jinling Zhen family to prepare to be escorted to Beijing for trial and verdict.

However, something happened along the way.

"Big ...... My lord!

Madame Bongsheng went! ”

Because the movement of raiding the house was a bit big, and Mrs. Fengsheng was indeed very old, she couldn't help but be frightened, and there was the blow of the Empress Dowager's decree depriving her of her life, so she couldn't bear it for a while, and fainted directly.

Although Liu Yinyi, who was in charge of raiding the house, had sent someone to invite a famous doctor to come over to help diagnose and treat her, she still failed to save the Fengsheng lady.

After all, it didn't get through.

I went in the early hours of the next morning.

The little official who came back and forth this time was a little trembling and scared, how this Fengsheng lady has been deeply favored by the emperor over the years is something that everyone can see, and now, this Fengsheng lady died in their hands, and when they returned to the capital, they didn't know how the emperor would blame it.

How can you not be afraid?

"Fortunately, fortunately, with the Empress Dowager's purpose, even if you and I have some sins, I don't think we will rob our families and destroy our families!

The emperor should not let it go!

Otherwise, let's make up a crime for her!

It's not a compilation, we can directly say that Mrs. Fengsheng was very angry and died of anger after listening to the Empress Dowager's decree!

In this way, we should not have a big deal in a short time, after all, it is impossible for the Emperor Taishang to investigate the crime of the Empress Dowager's decree, and those of us who read the decree naturally have no reason to blame!

And she was dissatisfied with the Empress Dowager's decree, and even died in a hurry, which is also a crime! ”

Although Liu Yinyi felt a little panicked when he heard the news at first, the Empress Dowager Yizhi in his hand gave him some confidence.

At the same time, I also began to ventilate with the side.

After all, there is still a big difference between Mrs. Fengsheng being frightened to death because of their raiding of her home and dying of anger after listening to the Empress Dowager's decree.

The former is their sin, and the latter is the sin of the Holy Lady herself, and even if they are angry, they will not be openly targeted.

"My lord is right, Mrs. Fengsheng did die of anger and blood after listening to the Empress Dowager's decree, which is dissatisfied with the Empress Dowager!"

Among the officials involved, there were a few people who were not human spirits, and it was impossible for Tu Minghui to send a few stunned people to do things, so everyone quickly understood the difference between different causes of death.

Immediately agreed.

Several other officials chimed in, and the cause of Lady Bongsheng's death was soon determined.

They are not afraid of accidents.

Because the real cause of death of Mrs. Fengsheng was indeed angry to death, and there was also a cerebral hemorrhage, these deaths were indeed quite consistent with the appearance of dying in anger, so even if they returned to the capital and were tested by the soldiers, they were not afraid of detecting anything wrong.

……

The morning was upward

Some people intercede for the Zhen family, some people ask for severe punishment and severe punishment, and there are people who are muddy, Tu Minghui sits on it and waits coldly, this time, he has made up his mind that he will not let go of the Zhen family, now look at the following situation, just to determine which are the people of the Zhen family and which are not the people of the Zhen family.

Lest you go back and catch the wrong one.
